The revealing interview he gave to GQ in December that took aim at everything ranging from Hannah Montana to his marriage and the media? A great big oops.

His feelings today toward Hannah Montana, which he once stated destroyed his family? Nothing but love.

“I would love to set the record strait,” Cyrus told the ladies on The View, which Friday consisted of Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Sherri Shepherd. “I love Hannah Montana. I love Disney. I love our fans that have been with us throughout this whole show. It’s been an incredible journey. Sometimes when you get on this ride, you may feel like you’re strapped to a rocket going through the universe a zillion miles an hour. I’ve been through that twice in my life. Once with ‘Achy Breaky Heart’ and my album Some Gave All. And fortunately I hung in there long enough to get to ride that ride again. And when your life becomes more of an interview or something off of a page than what you’re really living, those lines can blur … Hannah Montana and Disney didn’t tear my family apart. Fame, though. Fame is a different animal. You have to be careful with that thing.”

Cyrus says he regrets granting the interview to GQ last December when he blamed the television show for destroying his family and shared some tough words about his daughter Miley. He explains that at the time his life “was a storm like you’ve never seen in your life.”

When GQ showed up at his house with a camera crew, he let them in.

“I’m alone in Tennessee and I’m looking at lawyers and divorce papers and my family falling apart and all this stuff, and here’s GQ knocking on the door with a film crew,” he says. “I learned doing an interview when you’re mad and scared is a lot like going to the grocery store when you’re hungry. It’s not a good idea. I just shouldn’t have done it.”

When talk turns to his family and the state of his marriage to wife Tish, Cyrus says he wants to put his family back together. The singer filed papers in Williamson County on March 11 to halt divorce proceedings. But the relationship is a work in progress.

“Communication, I think, is one of the biggest problems we as human beings have in this whole world,” he says. “And I think that for the first time me and my entire family are really communicating with each other (better) than they have in quite some time. And things are really the best they’ve ever been. A lot of people think I am divorced. I’m not divorced. I dropped the divorce.”

His relationship with his daughter Miley is on an upswing, too.

“I feel like I kind of got my Miley back in a way,” he says. “I feel like we are the daddy and daughter that we were before Hannah Montana. We’ve laughed a lot in the last couple of days.”

But he’s still pointing some pretty hard fingers at himself for the job he did parenting the couple’s six children — three together and three from previous relationships.

“I did try to be a friend and I tried to be a dad, too,” he says. “I look back on it and go, ‘I sure ain’t perfect.’ I wish there was a manual on it, how to be the perfect dad. If there is, I didn’t read it. I made a lot of mistakes. I never could spank my kids. I never could hit my kids. But I look back on it and I think, I don’t know. Maybe.”
